Oh the awe and wonder captured and felt through another’s enthusiasm, has to be one of the loveliest experiences! I felt I was there with you Lindsay.

My parents had a love of those black licorice cigars as well, and licorice assortments.. I never understood 😅

We have been enjoying all the local strawberries, a divine cake❤️

I once saw a layer cake completely covered in licorice all sorts - it was a sight to behold! Almost pulled me into the world of black licorice... almost. I just can't do it!

Contrary to what I would typically believe, some of my best storytelling has generated from occasional trips to Walmart. 😅 Love that group of youngsters and their enthusiasm. Love how you've captured it here.

Our strawberry season was much too short this year -- big rains followed by a spike in temperatures. Next year, I'll need to plan a picking so I can have some in the freezer again. The cake looks amazing!

Thanks Elizabeth! It is an amazing cake, the kind that is even better when using 'almost off' strawberries. The jammier the better!

Ooh yum! Keeping this one for next summer’s wonderful influx of strawberries. Happy sigh. Loved the wrap up of the kids’ visit too. Happy sigh.
